Sadly, there are not enough people to run today's gallery visit, the first of the 'Your Space' workshops.

It's a shame since the show closes on Sunday, so we won't have an opportunity to re-schedule it for a later date. It shows the work of the Systems ...</description>

		<description>I've been developing ideas for the atrium, thinking about sails and how I might use sail cloth as a surface for the large-scale drawings in the space next to the stairwell. Since Kim's initial idea was that the piece might be like a spinnaker, I'm wondering if it wouldn't be ...</description>

I’m thinking about colour: trying to work with the BDO palette and to find sources of these colours within the building, e.g. the blue lino in the kitchen on the second floor. I’ll bring in my scanner so I can start ‘sampling’ these colours where I find them. Then I'll ...</description>

Have printed out contact sheets of all the photos I’ve taken so far and stuck them to the wall in the break-out area.
Set up video camera to shoot time-lapse across the balcony, looking towards roof of cinema.

Shot time-lapse of people moving through the atrium, with light and clouds changing.

Shot more time-lapse through the windows of the break out room. Not so successful this, since there's little change in the light and little movement but for the tide going out making the boat appear to be sinking!
